Strike Back, Proud Goddess! Novels

Tang Xi closed her eyes and stuck an ice bag into her eyes as she listened to the chatter of Xiao Jing and Xiao Sa. Unknowingly, he was no longer as sad as before. She smiles. Maybe this is the power of kinship. With them around him, he was not so sad.

A small island near the Pacific Ocean.

Qin Xinying got up early in the morning and put on a thin makeup. He used CC cream to cover his reddish skin to look pale. With makeup, she looked gentle and pitiful, and the pale red eye shadow made her eyes look a little swollen.

Looking at herself in the mirror, she smiled, picked up lipstick and applied it to make her red lips pale. Satisfied, she stuffed the lipstick into her makeup bag, turned to leave her room and went to the building where Qiao Liang lived.

Today, she wore a short white skirt and her scattered hair was blown randomly, which made her look adorable. He tidied his hair at his temple, took a breath and stepped into the building. He walked in without a hitch. There was no one working under Qiao Liang inside the building. He frowned and went upstairs.

As he reached the door of Qiao Liang's room, he slowed down and pondered. Is he still sleeping in grief? Thinking of this possibility, Qin Xinying thought of some way to comfort Qiao Liang, and finally knocked on his bedroom door.

After a long time, no one answered. He frowned and knocked a few more times, but still, no one answered. At that moment, a woman came. He smiled and asked in English, "Excuse me, are you looking for Mr Qiao?"

Qin Xinying nodded, and the woman smiled and introduced herself as the owner of the house. Qiao Liang had already checked out and left last night, and gave him an extra month's rent.

Qin Xinying's face suddenly turned pale. He bit his lips tightly and looked at the woman, asking, "You mean they're gone?"

Seeing her annoyed, the woman nodded sincerely and replied, “Yes, she checked out around 12pm last night. A helicopter picked them up at the time. They must have something urgent to pay attention to.”

Clenching his fists, Qin Xinying did not see the woman again and ran out of the little villa. He had heard the sound of the helicopter last night, but he thought it was Qiao Liang who was increasing his manpower to find Tang Xi. He didn't know he was gone!

Didn't she love Tang Xi so much? Why did he leave so suddenly?

At that moment, Qin Xinying's phone suddenly rang. He looked at the caller ID and picked up the phone. Before he said anything, the person on the other side hurriedly said, "Tang Xi appeared!"

Closing the phone, Qin Xinying rushed to the shore, looked up at the sky and shouted furiously, "Qiao Liang!"

'Just because of the email, you are so sure Tang Xi is still alive ?! Tang Xi is dead! Die up! He will never be able to come back to life!’

With her own eyes, she had witnessed Tang Xi's plane crash and Tang Xi's being smashed to pieces! How could he still be alive?!

Long Beacb's.

Someone picked up Qiao Liang as soon as he got off the plane; it was the president of the Long Beach Branch of the Qiao International Group. He respectfully greeted Qiao Liang. Qiao Liang nodded and told him that he had come for personal matters and needed nothing but a house to live in, and told the president not to fuss.

The president nodded and led Qiao Liang to a villa. Qiao Liang got out of the car, looked at the villa and said to the president, "Don't let anyone know that I'm in Long Beach. I came here for personal reasons and do not want to be bothered by business.”

The branch company president said he understood and hoped for a pleasant trip for Qiao Liang before leaving. Qiao Liang threw the door card in his hand at Little Five, and the latter opened the door and walked in. Little Six followed him and Qiao Liang went up behind. As he walked in, Qiao Liang asked Little Six who was holding his computer, "Have you positioned the IP address?"

Qiao Liang looked at Little Five and the latter said, “Our people will be coming soon. It will take about 20 minutes.”

Qiao Liang nodded. He didn't sleep last night, but he was still excited today and didn't want to sleep at all.

Qiao Liang looked at Little Six and said seriously, “Keep tracking that email IP address and be sure to find the original address. Little Five, wait for them here. I'll take a walk near him. Contact me when they arrive.”

Little Five nodded. Qiao Liang lit a cigarette and turned around to go outside.

Little Five looked back at Little Six, patted her on the shoulder and sighed. “My brother, try harder. Otherwise, we won't have a chance to sleep in the coming days.”

Feeling extremely stressed, Little Six stared at the computer. “This person is definitely the world's top hacker. Even though I'm better at computers than you guys, I can't compete with world-class hackers."

Little Five raised her eyebrows. "Why didn't the Young Master do it alone?"

Staring at the computer screen and continuing to tap on the keyboard, Little Six pursed her lips and said, “As the saying goes, 'the closer I get to my hometown, the more nervous I'll be'. So the more she wanted to know the news, the more she did not dare to lay her hands on it.”

Little Five looked at him disapprovingly. “Home page? Why does this metaphor sound so strange?”

Little Six raised her eyebrows and looked at him without stopping her knock. "Then name one that's not weird."

"good. Okay, your metaphor is good.”

Qiao Liang slightly closed his eyes as he walked on the beach. Then he opened his eyes and looked at the blue sea. The next second, however, he averted his gaze and did not dare to look into the blue sea, as he might be buried there. However, after he received the email, he felt a little grateful to the sea. Perhaps because of the sea, Xixi escaped death.

When his phone rang, Qiao Liang answered him and said, “First, check out the local hotels one by one, then private houses, and lastly private villas. Find them one by one. Be sure to find some traces of his whereabouts.”

On the other hand, Tang Xi's eyes were no longer swollen after using a cold compress. He washed his face, applied Refine Facial Treatment Essence on it, and got off to work out. After she had breakfast, Yang Jingxian asked her to go shopping with him, but Tang Xi said she had to finish her homework. This is the negative side of high school. On weekends, the amount of homework is even greater than usual.

Xiao Jing whistled and looked behind Tang Xi, asking, "Rourou, do you need me to teach you?"

Without looking back, Tang Xi replied, "I think I'm better at learning than you!"

Looking at Tang Xi's back with a smile, Yang Jingxian said, “I called the school to inquire about Rourou's lessons. They say his academic achievements are very good, and he can even help troubled teachers in the classroom. He's very impressive.”

“He's a genius,” Xiao Sa said, imitating Tang Xi's tone.
